*7th paper of each of the domain specific subjects (1st paper of semester VI) will be a domain related Elective. More than one Elective may be offered giving choice to students. The Electives may be of Domain specific applied or advanced (specialization) in nature. The number of Electives may be decided (along with the syllabus) by the University concerned keeping the feasibility of conduct of University examinations in view. ** Applied Elective: It is desirable that around 25% of syllabus is taught by field experts. The college has to make such an arrangement. *8th paper of each of the domain specific subjects (2nd paper of semester VI) will also be an Elective. The Electives may be of Inter-domain Clusters**- each Cluster having three papers with or without project work. or General in nature. The number of Clusters may be decided (along with the syllabus) by the University concerned keeping the feasibility of conduct of University examinations in view. It is desirable that around 25% of syllabus is taught by field experts. **Cluster: In the last semester, for paper-8, each domain subject has one elective totaling three papers for each student. Electives may be given as Clusters of three papers each for each subject. A student can opt for all the three papers of the same subject (cluster or stream) including or excluding project work for a wider learning experience. The student will not study the other two domain subjects for paper-8. Total Credits for a B.Sc. Course: 158
